Notes for SIMON CROSBY:
Ernest Howard Crosby, In the portion of the family history taken from the October New York Genealogical and Biograpical Record, Surmises that Simon Crosby 'may have come to America as one of the company of the Rev. Thomas Shepard, who crossed the ocean in that year (1635) and settled at Newtown, now Cambridge, Massachusetts. This Mr. Shepard was preceeded or accompanied by a large number of his freinds and acquaintances. He had taken orders in the Church of England, and had held livings in Yorkshire and Northumberland, but he enertained conscientious scruples regarding the ceremonies of his church, and was consequently so harassed by those in authority that he left England, and became one of the most eminent clergymen in New England. The Cheif reason for establishing Harvard College at Cambridge is that he lived there.'
This record goes on to state that before the end of 1635 we find Simon Crosby living at Newtown (Cambridge). He was admitted as a freeman on March 3, 1636 and chosen as a selectman in the fall of that year. In September of 1637 he was elected surveyor of highways; was selectman again in 1638, and in October of that year was elected constable.
On Dec. 5, 1636 land was granted to him and six others for pasture. He died in Cambridge in September 1639, at only 31 years of age. The cause of his death is not known, but we can surmise that his death may have been fairly sudden, since he died intestate. An addendum to Ernest Howard Crosby's record quoted above says that the orginal inventory of the estate of Simon Crosby, signed by his widow Anne, is on file in the archives of Massachuetts at Boston. It places the value of his property at 433 pounds.
Holme-on-Spaulding-Moor, in York Co., England is an extensive |Parrish located 15 miles SE of the city of York.
Simon and his wife came over in the ship "Susan and Ellen."
Notes for ANNE BRIGHAM:
It is from Thomas 7, the firstborn, that our line descends, but before proceeding to his generation, it may be of interest to record some of the facts of the later life of the widowed Anne Crosby. In 1646 or l647, she married the Rev. William Tompson, aa distinguished clergyman in Braintree (now Quincy), Mass., who apparentlly pursued his religious duties with zeal but with little regard for financial gain. Ernest Howard Crosby's record says that in Aug. of 1652 she sold the Crosby house4 with six acres adjoining, and also 147 acres of land in the neighborhood. Mr. Tompson's health was finally undermined 'by melancholia', and he retired from preaching in 1659. He died in 1666, leaving his family in straitened circumstances. In 1668 Anne petitioned the General Court, complaining that moneys due her for his services were witheld. She died in 1675 and was buried in the Quincy churchyard. We have no record of what became of her daughter Ann, her only child by Mr. Tompkins.
At this point, it may be as well to record what is known of two other brothers, both younger than Thomas:
Simon Jr., born 1637, moved early in life to Billerica, Mass. and was the first innkeeper in that town. He was Representative in the General Court in 1691, 1697, and 1698. (Indications are that it is from him that the Alonzo Crosby descent is traced.)
Joseph, the third son, is the ancestor from which Ernest Howard Crosby descends. Born in 1639, he was just 7 months old when his father, Simon the Emigrant, died. When his mother remarried, he was taken by her to live with his stepfather's family. He passed his life there as a farmer, but was always prominent in town affairs, frequently serving on committees.
Children of SIMON CROSBY and ANNE BRIGHAM are:
11. i. THOMAS11 CROSBY, REV, b. 26 Feb 1634/35, HOLME, YORK, ENGLAND; d. 27 Jun 1702, BOSTON, MA..
ii. SIMON CROSBY, b. Aug 1637, CAMBRIDGE, MA.; d. Unknown.
iii. JOSEPH CROSBY, b. Abt. 1639, CAMBRIDGE, MA.; d. Unknown.
Generation No. 11
11. THOMAS11 CROSBY, REV (SIMON10, THOMAS9, ANTHONY8, THOMAS7, MILES6, JOHN5, SIR PIERCE4, SIR ODO3 DE CROSBY, SIR SIMON2, SIR CHARLES1) was born 26 Feb 1634/35 in HOLME, YORK, ENGLAND, and died 27 Jun 1702 in BOSTON, MA.. He married SARAH FITCH (OR SNOW ?). She died Unknown.
Notes for THOMAS CROSBY, REV:
Emigrated 8 weeks old , grauated from Harvard in 1653, had 12 children and Alonzo Crosby's records show that his brother Simon married a Rachel Bracket; despite the difference in spelling, it may be that the brothers married sisters.
Thomas 7 Crosby, was born at Holme-on-Spaulding, was brought to Boston in 1635, and in1655 he was engaged by the church in Eastham, Mass. to conduct public services on the Lords Day.
I now quote from A CROSBY FAMILY LINE compiled by Emerson Crosby
Kelly "He was a 'religious teacher,' not a pastor; this difference carries a nice distinction. He filled the position for fifteen years, altough he never was ordained as a minister. Subsequently he became a merchant in Harwich. Mass, and wrote several religious books."
Notes for SARAH FITCH (OR SNOW ?):
Had 12 children before her second marriage to John Miller of Yarmoth.

Thomas was admitted to church membership Oct. 20, 1717. (Crosby, 1940, p 11)
Thomas' will is dated 7 June 1758 at Newent. No date of probate is shown but the three witnesses were sworn in 19 Dec. 1767 and the inventory taken 4 Jan. 1768, so Thomas probably did not die until 1767.
